AFRC/PNDC Coup D'etats - UPfront on JoyNews (27-6-18)

Have the revolutionary goals been successful?

[@jessieadjei8632]

Peter Tasiru and all those junior officers who had a hand in the generals killings will not go Scott free. I pity their children because,if God blesses,it goes from generation to generation so as curses. How can you kill someone on loans? I know they killed some of them for no offence. Example air vice marshal yaw boakye,major general bob kotei who had just returned from the UK on the 3rd of June 1979 and major general utuka. Mr Kwasi Adu and retired captain budu koomson, God bless you abundantly for highlighting us on the activities of the then AFRC. As for captain budu koomson,I respect you because, putting the hood on your two God fathers in the military only to hear the sound of the gun few minutes,ending up their lives,I would have collapsed instantly and wouldn't come back to consciousness again.

Rawlings was cunning & used his smartness to manipulate all these guys to achieve his political ambitions, including seizing political power. He later killed many of them & others, fearing for their lives, fled Ghana.

Ray can you give this man more airtime and allow him to answer the questions fully before asking the next please?

[@WW24343]

This man is Holding back something...

On PNC being the Nkrumaists, I bring something from the PNP Chairman of KNUST students during my KNUST days : On 15/10/2018, John Daniels wrote : “But I can tell you the President, the Vice President, the Presidentiai Affairs, Minister in charge of Presidential Security ,Dr Nabila then . Colonel Yayah who was Coordinator of National Security were aware there was some thing going to happen and what they did I don't know. That was why I in particular never joined the PNC which was led by Dr. Limann in 1992. Even Colonel Yayah's, Deputy Mr. Banini who later was training security men in Rawling's regime knew there was going to be a coup.”

We need a 2nd segment, please.

Koku Anyidoho was in the university during the 4th June revolution.

When i listen to this man, and other people Raymond interviewed i.e Major Boakye Gyan, Adabuga, Akata Pore, Capt Baah Achamfour and ors all these guys fell out with Rawlings. Clearly they did not know or understand the man dey were dealing with. Rawlings was a hungry man who wanted success and manipulative and it baffles me they did not see this from the beginning which led to a lot of wasted lives. I do not agree with some of the things he said for instance the other ranks wanted house cleansing, they were manipulated. He denys that he did not take part in confiscating assets of ppl. I think he knows something. He talks about the fact that the PNP had no proper governance structure, meaning it was justifiable to overthrow a legal government.

[@rickeyossei7238]

Raymond please allow your guests to finish answering your questions before asking them more. Limann was no Nkrumahist by the way. Quote the local writers like Prof Hutchful and not Nugent.

[@Fastboy108]

He's a rookie i think. Just scattering the story.

[@thomasdwemoh-de9os]

Please allow the person you are interviewing time to answer the questions. Thanks

[@sthenrymary]

3 months to chop money. Nothing substantial can't be done in that time frame other than line their pockets.

[@acheamong-boakyeosei5214]

I wish Sir John is alive today to explain how he got all those lands at Achimota to you.

[@yawbee7711]

One ndc deal could be more than the funds of these murdered Seniors Which one deal surpasses these. If he s taken a loan, sell his /her property and pay...

[@jaketenobi3381]

Ooooo Raymond. You talk too much Please allow the interview to flow instead of interjecting unnecessarily. Please please, these are very important interviews and some of us are learning who were not old enough during these events. Please do it like Kweku Sakyi Addo. Komla Dumor David Ampofo or Paul Adom-Otchere. We beg you

[@TheMuzikall]

I was part of the Asset Confiscation Group.... HOST :..What's the Asset Confiscation Group? ??..What do you do???.....😆😆😆..Charming

[@jameshanson5561]

We do not know the reasons why imoru egalla was discreditedat that period so if the media could help us make a meaning out of this thank you

[@Governor1935]

📝🇺🇸📝 This man is bn honest but he is still holding some of the things back... it isn't helping the show

[@Fastboy108]

The journalist is not asking the right questions

[@XyGamingZito]

Who told him Limann is not Nkrumaist

[@yawbee7711]

Hatred led to killings B4 finding reasons for MURDERS

[@kofi333]

interview terrible one..interrupting the guy whilst answering questions.really bad

[@princekag3440]

This guy _( the interviewer) has no journalism courtesy. Smh

[@Chopper1z]

please respect their military ranks, mention it when mentioning their names.

[@ThreeAmigos308]

This host should go read a book.!

[@samuelkwekubentil9897]

I contend that anyone who supports (or supported) the AFRC '79 revolution and at the same time also support (supported) the PNDC '81 coup is confused about life, and suffers from an acute case of myopia. The two events are a similar as water and oil. "Principles are indivisible, they are either wholly stuck to or wholly abandoned", there is no middle point between than. If overthrowing a constitutionally elected govt in 1966, 1972, is high treason and punishable by death, then it must be a treasonable offense in 1981 and also punishable by death, under no circumstances should any person justify it.

[@ZeusRanger75]

Did this journalist at the 46:37 point ask if they killed him? Gosh smh!

[@yawjay7049]

These people saw people who had 1/3 of what the perpertrators currently have as rich So they couldn t brag yeah Kutu had 10 cars.....

[@spermratty]

The Host Is wack

[@margaretamponsah4480]

You all followed blindly. God forgive you all.

[@dawooddamba1478]

What kind of introduction is this? So boring .

[@koffiblavo9312]

My friend, i don,t know what you want to achieve by making this program.., what i can tell you is that you can never succeed. Rawlings is an intelligent and a smart man as a military man. I have been wacthing your program for quiet a while, some of your interviewers were not sincere.

[@yawjay7049]

At that time they were telling key figures to be in Ghana in 1981 so 81 coup was in minds at that time Now Liman was an obstacle

[@OKURU100]

Where did rest of the confiscated properties go? Why didn't PNDC members who escaped to exile stay to taste their own medicine? What made them think Ghana could be made a socialist or communist country when Nkrumah couldn't? You guys will pay for all the criminal activities you committed in future.

[@bobsanto4696]

Terrible

[@ssgt.bonbon.3615]

[@bamb1006]
